I know this isn’t directly car related but it is pretty F’ing awesome nonetheless.  Recently lowrider builder and automotive artist Mr. Cartoon teamed up with artist David  to create a set of movie poster style art works in tribute to Danny Trejo star of Machete.  Check out the videos below for all the info on the collaboration and the inspiration behind the posters.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything from GruppeM and I don’t think I’ve posted any Honda CR-Z accessories yet so its crazy that the two are coming together like this.  Especially considering the type of cars GruppeM typically produces product for.  It looks like the CR-Z is going to be a big deal if GruppeM decided to make a “power cleaner” for it

I just noticed this on Cosworth USA’s news feed a little while ago.  Looks like they’re going to get into the intake business!  Not much is known yet, only that they will produce these intakes for “most popular performance vehicles.”  That statement could be pretty broad depending on what your definition of “performance vehicle” is but I guess it’s safe to say you wont see any of these under the hood of a Civic (except maybe the Si).

After almost two years of being on the good ol’ interwebs we have finally decided to create a shirt.  Our first design dubbed “SUPER HYPE ME!” is now available and totally free.  The catch is there isn’t any one place to get it.  We may bring a few to an event we’re covering and ask you to find us or we might ask trivia question via our twitter or facebook pages and the first person to get the right answer will get a shirt.  We’ll try to let you know when, where, and how you can get a MotorworldHype shirt when we have a few to give away so stay tuned!.  If you miss an opportunity to get a shirt don’t be totally bummed because there is a good chance we’ll have a few SUPER HYPE ME sticker on hand as well.

Today shall be the day remembered by all Porsche owners and enthusiasts because it is this day that Vorsteiner has released the new V-RT tuning package for the 911 Turbo.  Ok, maybe that was a bit dramatic but look at how FRESH that aero kit is!  Everything about this says “classy aggression”.  Some might question the fog light delete in the front air dam but to me it really smooths things out.  As usual with Vorsteiner programs there are a few dope wheel choices available including center lock options!  Check out the press release below for full details.

The guys at EAT SLEEP RACE brought back their trademark “bobble head” character for one mo’ ‘gain in a super limited box set run. The shirt goes on sale on the 26th (about a day and a half from now) and only 75 box sets were produced!  I don’t think they’ll let you pre-order so if you want one you better just wake up super early this Thursday so you can pick one up!

The first part of Gymkhana 3 is here!  In an unexpected move the first installment of what many are expecting to be an epic trilogy of hoonage is a music video featuring “The Cool Kids“.  Just like part 2 they’re coming at us again from the “infomerical” angle but somehow the way they do it just works!  Check out the music video below!

About a day or so ago the curtain offically pulled off the new 2012 Mercedes Benz CLS and all the European car enthusiasts around the world began to drool collectively.  Since Mercedes decided to reveal the car before the upcoming Paris Motor Show they held back some details, including the power train options and performance figures.  Instead of facts and figures the German manufacturer released a press release that basically explains why this car is so sexy.  That press release also happens to be 4 pages long!  Do we really need that many words to explain what we can already figure out with our eyes?  Not really!  So enjoy the pictures below and stay tuned for additional news as it develops.

DUDE! It is a freakin’ blue Playstation 3!  Did you read that? A BLUE PS3! Oh, and it gets better.  This special “Titanium Blue” PS3 console is part of a special limited edition Gran Turismo 5 console pack.  So not only do you get the blue console but you also get the limited edition version of Gran Turismo 5!  Are you excited yet?  Well, allow me to burst you’re bubble… There is no official word yet if this console pack will be available in the US or if this is a Japan only deal.  Hopefully we’ll get some confirmation on this soon!  Did I mention that its BLUE?!

Sometimes the best modifications don’t add performance but are still incredibly fresh nonetheless.  One such example is GReddy’s LED Daytime Running Light kitseen here on the Nissan 370Z.  The fit and finish is so good it makes you wonder why Nissan didn’t just offer this on the 370Z themselves!  Hindsight is always 20/20 right?  FYI GReddy also has LED Daytime Running Light kits for the Nissan 350Z and Nissan R35 GT-R.  If you’re nice they may just expand the application list for this hot little item.
